Answer:
true
Explanation:
Here we have assumed that increasing the mass of a glove will increase the surface area.
Injury is caused by the application of pressure at a point on the body. The application of pressure takes place via the area of the gloves. Pressure is given by
where
F = Force
A = Area to which the force is applied
So, a bigger glove will increase the surface area and reduce the pressure resulting in a lower chance of injury.
Hence, the statement is true.
1) 29.8 C
At the beginning, the metal is at higher temperature (70.4 C) while the water is at lower temperature (23.6 C). When they are put in contact, the metal transfers heat to the water, until they reach thermal equilibrium: at thermal equilibrium the two objects (the metal and the water have same temperature). Therefore, since the temperature of the water at thermal equilibrium is 29.8 C, the final temperature of the metal must be the same (29.8 C).
2) 6.2 C
The temperature change of the water is given by the difference between its final temperature and its initial temperature:
where
Substituting into the formula,
And the positive sign means that the temperature of the water has increased.
3) -40.6 C
The temperature change of the metal is given by the difference between its final temperature and its initial temperature:
where
Substituting into the formula,
And the negative sign means the temperature of the metal has decreased.
